@Closure777 well put, these guys arent flashy pop artists with a bunch of back up dancers who dub over their own songs ... no there TOOL , there all real.
Personally, I like the transition between the video and the live performance. It gives me an understanding and leaves me questioning about what the song represents.
I saw them at the Mile High Music Festival in Denver this summer. They had the best performance. The wind was blowing during this song and it looked like it was gonna storm. Fucking surreal. Unfortunately, we did not all get flushed away. Kinda good we didn't. I wanted to see the end of the show first.
Hey cool, i was reading all these comments about why maynard stood this or that way or why did he perform in his underpants or the camera angle isnt good at 3:34 and all this crap, i just thought hey!!, shut up and listen to them play!! its good enough that the music exists , who cares about the rest, it feels good enough just seeing all the positive comments, knowing that theres thousands more out there that feel the same as you do thanks to TOOL! If ya know what i mean :)
I agree with you, Finlan9: Then again: Could it be that Maynard does what he does is because he's ... oh, I don't know ... A Fucking Performer?! I'm just taking a wild stab at it, Finlan9, what do you think?? He's on a stage, he's got a mic, he moves to the left, then to the right, he goes in a crouching position, then he straightens back up. Oh yeah: He wears Depends & sings really loud.
It's called PERFORMING, PEOPLE! Granted it ain't the Kirov Ballet, but us TOOL fans FUCKING LOVE IT!

THIS IS SO SCARY CAUSE IT ACTUALLY HAPPENS
for people who are ticked about seeing the screen more than tool, ever wonder why the band typically has so much visuals? and why they stand back so much and let the music speak for itself? maybe tool wants you to focus on the music and the art rather than giving them every bit of attention, b/c their music is more important than they as people are.
I agree with what you say about the music speaking for itself...but come on; you go to a tool show, you want to see tool. The visuals are fun and all, but unless I'm tripping the band is all that matters.
oh yeah, i'd be pissed if next tour they like stepped BEHIND the visuals. lol that'd be all >:[ grrr!
but for this video on youtube, being as its WAY different seing them in person than on here, but the visuals aren't AS different, i kinda like just watchin alot of the visuals =]
At a gig, you can take both in without actually focusing entirly on one. Whereas, actually FLIMING the god damn visuals for about 3 minutes is absurd!
@Closure777 Very well put. I love Tool and their unique live shows. It's almost a hint of arrogance from Maynard when he stands back out of the limelight, as though he's so proud of the music the band is performing.
Watching Tool is definitely more like going to an art exhibition than a concert.
i'd personally rather watch the visuals then the band, sure they're cool, but there just people, people dont do much... they should release a live dvd just showin the visuals
